“Nate vs. Jake in MMA, that actually is realistic at this point,” O’Malley said on his podcast. [Paul is] a businessman. He has what part equity or ownership in PFL now? Say you give Nate Diaz M, you do a million pay-per-views, a buy. 50 million, can be 60 million if it’s a buy. Pay Nate M, [Paul], you could pay yourself 10-15, whatever.
